ITEM  2.    Management Discussion and Analysis of Financial  Condition
and Results of Operations


The Company's revenue for the quarter end of October 31, 1996 was
$196,599 compared with $527,144 in 1995.  The revenue for the six
months was $8,552,425 compared with $583,453 in 1995.  The  loss   for
the three month period was $4,721,242 (including an unrealized loss on
trading securities of $1,951,257) compared with $798,693 in 1995.  The
loss for the six month period was $1,977,236 (including an unrealized
loss on trading securities of $4,500,488)  compared with a loss of
$1,411,708 in 1995.

 Revenue during  the quarter was limited.   The introduction of  the
latest version of DigiPhone in the summer and the length of time
required to distribute through the wholesale and retail channels,
together with the return of older versions of DigiPhone, were
contributing factors in slower than anticipated sales of the software.
Retail revenue was hampered due to the conversion of the Mr. CD Rom
Stores concept into the Software @ Cost plus 10% concept which
disrupted trading and required new personnel changes and training
methods to be implemented.  Revenue in the Internet Access subsidiary
was limited to test marketing in six cities nationwide, with emphasis
being placed on market research and analysis of initial sales.  The
quarterly results were also effected by a lack of license fees from
the sale of distribution rights, a write down of retail and wholesale
software inventory, and a further write down in the value of trading
securities to reflect a decline in the share price of  Meteor
Technology PLC on the Alternative Investment Market of the London
Stock Exchange.

The consolidated balance sheets for the period shows stockholder's
equity of  $15,620,671 compared with $15,680,168 at the year ended
April 30, 1996.  Total assets were $16,583,240 compared with
$16,701,863 for the same periods.

During the quarter, the Company commenced shipment of DigiPhone Deluxe
and DigiPhone for Mac as well as making available free 30 day versions
of DigiPhone and DigiPhone for Mac software on it's Internet web page
at http://www.digiphone.com.  Both products were well received by
retailers, but the inventory build up by retailers for the Christmas
period was slower than  anticipated, and the placement of the software
products on retail shelves was not wide spread until the end of
September 1996.

During the period the Company announced that DigiPhone Europe, the
exclusive European distributor of DigiPhone has launched DigiPhone
software in the United Kingdom with a live Dallas/London demonstration
to approximately 200 press, trade and corporate officers in London,
England.  Further, the Company announced that it will  begin
distributing with DigiPhone Deluxe the new Internet Explorer version
3.0 browser software from Microsoft Corporation.  The Internet
Explorer software will also be provided to new subscribers of  Camelot
Internet Access Services.

On November 22, subsequent to the period under review, the company
entered into an agreement with Meteor Technology PLC  ("Meteor") to
sell the international rights to distribute DigiPhone.  Meteor,  which
through its subsidiary DigiPhone Europe already has the European
distribution rights for DigiPhone, acquired the rights for the rest of
the world (excluding the USA, Canada and Europe) for approximately
$1,600,000 payable by the issuance  of 1,000,000 pounds 1996-2001 7%
convertible loan stock, convertible into ordinary  shares of Meteor at
55p per share.  In addition, the Company  subscribed for a further
1,000,000 pounds loan stock for cash.  Upon the conversion of the
total 2,000,000 pound loan stock  the Company will own approximately
19% of the enlarged issued share capital of Meteor.  Meteor is public
company listed on the Alternative Investment Market of the London
Stock Exchange.
